Bug ID: 462835
Summary: Applets that aren't specified in the AppletOrder of
desktop-appletrc prevents permanent panel changes
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.26.4
Platform: Archlinux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Panel
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: ethan1472...@gmail.com

Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
NOTE: My summary of what happens here is partially speculation/my
interpretation of what is happening, the only concrete information I have is
what I did to fix this issue.
Sometimes, modifying a panel will have its changes improperly saved to
`~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc`, leaving behind a
definition and configuration of an `Applet`, but without including it in the
`AppletOrder` of its `Containment`.
This results in its panel being unable to have its changes saved, as shown by
the time that you've restarted or logged in and out you'll see that no changes
have been made to the panel. Even trying to remove the applet from the panel
editor on the desktop has no effect, but removing the definition of the
`Applet` in the RC file that lacks an entry in the `AppletOrder` will fix the
issue.
